Title: Don't see changes made in Lot Editor.
Post by: Mr_Maison on October 19, 2007, 01:31:08 PM
Sorry if this topic was covered....I did do a search. I'm looking for some in-depth tutorials on the Lot Editor. Last night I tried adding some flora to a couple of lots but see no results in the game. I wonder what I'm doing wrong. The lots I played around with are ploppable. 1 was a cruise ship terminal, and the other was monorail shops. I see the files I saved in the plugins folder but when I plop them in my city they remain unchanged. I tried save and save as with the shops and still no change. I read the manual but it does not address this issue I have. These lots were downloaded so I wonder if that have anything to do with it. Any help is appreciated...thanks in advance.

when you save a file with the lot editor it saves to the root plugins directory rather than to the directory where the orignal file is found. try removing the original lot file from the plugins folder and see if that helps.  i wouldnt delete the original, just move it out of the plugins folder, just in case.
